SERVICE OPPORTUNITY

In honor of its 10 year anniversary, the Massachusetts Promise Fellowship is coordinating its first annual statewide day of service- Opportunity to Serve. Taking place on Saturday, April 25th, in conjunction with Global Youth Service Day, Opportunity to Serve will bring together current Fellows, community partners, alumni and youth to serve at 6 designated service projects across the state. This project is supported by Youth Service America and the Massachusetts Service Alliance. The projects will take place in Adams, Lowell, Brockton, as well as three located in Boston. You can register for any of the projects here: http://www.formspring.com/forms/?574022-HupjlbEHHU

The Massachusetts Promise Fellowship believes that all young people in the Commonwealth have a right to the resources that they need to be successful in life, including a caring adult, a safe place, a healthy start, an effective education, and an opportunity to serve. We deliver these 5 promises to youth by training emerging leaders who commit one year of service to support and provide these needed resources to youth throughout the Commonwealth. For more information about the Massachusetts Promise Fellowship, please visit www.masspromisefellows.org, or contact Kori Redepenning at k.redepenning@neu.edu.
